This is the safety alert symbol.
This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.

All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or "WARNING."

These words mean:

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately
follow instructions.

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow

instructions.

All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can
happen if the instructions are not followed.

iMPORTANT SAFETY iNSTRUCTiONS

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RiSK OF FIRE, ELECTRIC

SHOCK, OR iNJURY TO PERSONS, OBSERVE THE

FOLLOWING:

m Use this unit only in the manner intended by the

manufacturer, if you have questions, contact the
manufacturer.

m Before servicing or cieaning the unit, switch the power off at

the service panel disconnecting means to prevent power
from being switched on accidentalIy. When the service

disconnecting means cannot be locked, securely fasten a
prominent warning device, such as a tag, to the service

panel.

m installation work and electricaJ wiring must be done by

qualified person(s) in accordance with all applicable codes
& standards, including fire-rated construction.

m Sufficient air is needed for proper combustion and

exhausting of gases through the flue (chimney) of fuel
burning equipment to prevent backdrafting. Follow the

heating equipment manufacturer's guideline and safety
standards such as those published by the National Fire

Protection Association (NFPA), the American Society for
Heating, Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Engineers

(ASHRAE), and the local code authorities.

m When cutting or drilling into wall or ceiling; do not damage

electrical wiring and other utilities.

m Ducted systems must always be vented outdoors.

CAUTION: For general ventilating use only. Do not use
to exhaust hazardous or explosive materials and vapors.

CAUTION: To reduce risk of fire and to properly exhaust

air, be sure to duct air outside - do not vent exhaust air into
spaces within walls ceilings, attics, crawl spaces, or

garages.

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RiSK OF FIRE, USE ONLY

METAL DUCTWORK.

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RiSK OF A RANGE TOP

GREASE FIRE:
m Never leave the surface units unattended at high settings.

Boilovers cause smoking and greasy spillovers that may

ignite. Heat oils siowiy on low or medium settings.

m Always turn hood ON when cooking at high heat or when

flameing food (i.e. Crepes Suzette, Cherries Jubilee,

Peppercorn Beef Flamb@.

m Clean ventilating fans frequently. Grease shouId not be

allowed to accumulate on fan or filter.

m Use proper pan size. Always use cookware appropriate for

the size of the surface element.

WARNING: TO REDUCE THE RiSK OF iNJURY TO

PERSONS iN THE EVENT OF A RANGE TOP GREASE
FIRE, OBSERVE THE FOLLOWING: a

m SMOTHER FLAMES with a close fitting Iid, cookie sheet, or

other metal tray, then turn off the gas burner or electric
element. BE CAREFUL TO PREVENT BURNS. if the

flames do not go out immediately, EVACUATE AND CALL

THE FiRE DEPARTMENT.
m NEVER PiCK UP A FLAMING PAN - you may be burned.
m DO NOT USE WATER, including wet dishcloths or towels -

a vioIent steam explosion wilI result.
m Use an extinguisher ONLY if:

- You know you have a class ABC extinguisher, and you
already know how to operate it.

- The fire is small and contained in the area where it
started.

- The fire department is being called.

- You can fight the fire with your back to an exit.

aBased on "Kitchen Fire Safety Tips" published by NFPA.
m WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock,

do not use this fan with any solid-state speed control
device.

To calculate the length of the system you need, add the
equivalent feet (meters) for each vent piece used in the system.

Venting methods

This range hood is factory set for vented installations. Vent

system can terminate through either the roof or wall. A
6" (15.2 cm) round vent system must be used. The vent system

length should not exceed 35 ft (10.7 m).

System length = 13 ft (3.9 m)

NOTE: Flexible vent is not recommended. Flexible vent creates
back pressure and air turbulence that greatly reduce
performance.

IMPORTANT.- Observe all governing codes and ordinances. Save
installation instructions for electrical inspector's use.

it is the customer's responsibility to contact a qualified electrical
installer, and to assure that the electrical installation is adequate

and in conformance with National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70
(latest edition), or CSA Standards C22.1-94, Canadian Electrical

Code, Part 1 and C22.2 No. 0-M91 (latest edition) and all local
codes and ordinances.

if codes permit and a separate ground wire is used, it is
recommended that a qualified electrician determine that the

ground path is adequate.
A copy of the above code standards can be obtained from:

3. Mark and cut a 6" (15.2 cm) round vent opening.

GeneraJ venting installation

For vented instalmations:
Make necessary cuts in the wall for vent fittings.

NOTE: The hood exhaust may be directed out the rear of the
hood by removing the motor assembly and rotating it so the

exhaust collar is located on the rear of the hood. If this is desired,
see "Change Hood to Rear Exhaust" section to change the
exhaust direction.

IMPORTANT: Make sure the vent system is installed before
installing range hood.

For reeireumating installations:
A vent system and vent grill (not provided) that directs the

recirculated air back into the room either through the soffit or

through the cabinet top is required. Use Recirculation Kit Part

Number 4396565. For ordering information, see "Assistance or
Service."

IMPORTANT: If venting through the cabinet top, do not

terminate the exhaust into dead air space such as an attic or

enclosed soffit.
When venting through the soffit, assemble the vent system (not

provided) you will use over the exhaust collar, but do not attach

the vent system yet.

NOTE: The vent system can exhaust out the front of the soffit or
be rotated to exhaust out the side or end of the soffit.

Venting through the soffit

1. On aflat surface with a protective covering, assemble the
vent system you will use (not provided) over the exhaust

collar, but do not attach the vent system yet.

NOTE: The vent system can exhaust out the front of the soffit
or be rotated to exhaust out the side or end of the soffit.

2. Measure distance "A" (from top of hood to centerline of 6"

[15.2 cm] round vent). Mark the distance "A" on soffit.

Venting through cabinet top

1. Mark the location where vent cover will be installed in the
cabinet top and cut a 6" (15.2 cm) round vent opening for the

vent cover

IMPORTANT: Do not terminate exhaust into a dead air space
such as an attic or enclosed soffit.

A, Vent system D. Ceiling or soffit

B. Vent cover E, Hood

C. Cabinet top

[] For vented installations, it is recommended that the vent

system be installed before hood is installed.

[] Do not cut a joist or stud unless absolutely necessary. If a

joist or stud must be cut, then a supporting frame must be

constructed.

[] Before making cutouts, make sure there is proper clearance

within the ceiling or wall for vent fittings.

[] Check that all the installation parts and the box with filters

have been removed from the shipping carton.

Preparation

1. If possible, disconnect power and/or gas supply and move
freestanding or slide-in range from cabinet opening to

provide easier access to rear wall.

2. Select a flat surface for assembling the hood. Cover that
surface with a protective covering such as a blanket or

cardboard during assembly.

Excessive Weight Hazard

Use two or more people to move and install
range hood.

Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

3. Using 2 or more people, slowty Iift the range hood onto the

protected surface=

9. Run wire through hole in accordance with the National

Electrical Code or CSA Standards and local codes and

ordinances= There must be enough power supply cable from
the fused disconnect (or circuit breaker) box to make the

connection in the range hood's electrical box=

10. Use caulking to seal all openings=

iMPORTANT: Do not turn on power until installation is complete=

The hood comes from the factory with the exhaust collar on top
of the hood. The hood exhaust may be directed out the rear of

the hood through the exhaust collar. If you desire to have the
hood exhaust out the rear, follow the procedure below.

1. From inside the hood, remove the screw holding the ground
wire to the blower motor.
